Discussion Panel “Katyn – There Is Still More to Discover”
(7th Library Meetings with History at the Zamość Public Library)
As part of the 7th Library Meetings with History organised by the Zamość Public Library, a series of lectures and educational events was held for secondary school students and the wider public, focusing on the history and legacy of the Katyn massacre. The programme was held under the motto: “There is not enough earth to bury memory – in remembrance of the heroes of Katyn, Kharkiv, Mednoye, Bykivnia and other sites yet to be discovered, on the 85th anniversary of the crime.”
On 21 March 2025, the discussion panel “Katyn – There Is Still More to Discover” brought together distinguished historians, researchers and representatives of remembrance organisations. The panel participants included: Piotr Skotnicki – Assistant Curator at the Katyn Museum; Dr Janusz Kłapeć (Military Historical Bureau in Warsaw); Piotr Greszta (John Paul II Catholic University of Lublin); Marek Splewiński – President of the Zamość Katyn Families Association.
The event was accompanied by the photographic exhibition “Katyn – Saving Memory from Oblivion” by Waldemar Leszczyński, Director of Inter-school Boarding House No. 2 in Zamość.
The partner of the 7th Library Meetings with History was the Lublin Voivodeship as part of the “It Is Worth Being Polish” programme. Media patronage for the event was provided by Radio Lublin.
